You have to watch 30 movies to earn a free movie pass.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Points earned for each movie = 2 points

Current points = 40 points

Free movie pass = 100 points

Let,

x be the number of movies you have to watch.

2*number of movies + current points = 100

[tex]2x+40=100[/tex]

Subtracting 40 from both sides

[tex]2x+40-40=100-40\\2x=60[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{60}{2}\\x=30[/tex]

You have to watch 30 movies to earn a free movie pass.
